These 36 characters, calligraphers often use the "continuous brushwork", written quickly and neatly, the mystery is not difficult to grasp.
It is often seen that calligraphers write, almost in one go, with smooth and elegant lines. This is not something that can be written casually, and it is necessary to master some "consecutive strokes".
However, these "consecutive strokes" are not as unattainable as you think, as long as you understand the mystery of them, you can quickly master them without hard practice.
That is to say, practicing words cannot be blindly and painstakingly practiced, but to find tips and magic methods, you can do more with less.
Below, 36 words are listed, which are basically words with a lot of strokes, which are somewhat difficult. Look at how calligraphers write in "even strokes".
The more strokes there are, the more often it is necessary to use the continuous brushwork, because only by connecting the pen can the writing speed be improved and the artistry of the whole word can be improved.
Especially when creating brush and hard pen calligraphy works, it is necessary to use ligatures, which is usually called "Xingshu" and "Xingcao" fonts, which are generally used by the majority of calligraphers or calligraphy enthusiasts, because they can express the author's thoughts and feelings, not like it is in italics, too much to express the spirit of the spirit.
First, let's look at a set of Chinese characters, with the structure of the "true" character:
At the beginning of the picture, the "true" word structure is mentioned in the stroke of the stroke. At first glance, it is very different from the "true" of the calligraphy, and the general lover of calligraphy recognizes it, but many people do not know that this is the cursive way of writing the word "true".
There are many strokes of the "true" character, and when it is written in a cursive font, it can be written almost in one stroke. Note that the middle part should be written compactly, and the following two points should be written relatively openly, appearing dashing, so that the whole word has been retracted and put, tight inside and loose outside, looking artistic.
The figure lists the words with the structure of the real word, such as the word "prudent", the left side of the vertical heart, but also to be made of pens, originally three strokes, with two strokes, and then the trend to connect the right side of the real word structure, with the above mentioned continuous brushwork, so that the whole word can be written in one go.
Another example is the "town" word, the left is next to the first gold character of the side, next to the golden character of the cursive font, which is slightly different from the writing of the cursive script, pay attention to the writing method in the observation chart, the original skimming is slightly longer, to the cursive font, it is shortened, the middle part is supposed to converge, to the cursive font is slightly opener, the following pen is written slightly straighter, it seems to be strong.
The structure of the real characters on the right is written in one go according to the continuous stroke writing method in the figure. Pay attention to the whole word, pay attention to "closing" and "putting", the compact stroke should be written compactly, and the stroke that should be released should be written stretched, that is, the structural characteristics of the inner tight and loose interstitial frame, which cannot be distributed everywhere equally and lead to loose and rigid.
As long as you master the continuous writing method of the real word structure, you can quickly get these example words in the figure, give one example and three examples, and integrate them.
Next, let's look at a group of Chinese characters, with the "Yu" character structure type.
First, let's see how the structure of the word "Yu" in the figure is written consecutively. Note that the main stroke of the "Yu" of the letter is a herringbone, and the skimming and pinching should be released and stretched. However, when it comes to the grass font, the convergence becomes very small, but the following part is written stretched out, and the vertical hook is released to write, becoming the main pen, and the vertical hook is also deformed, becoming a curved stroke, and the hook is also omitted. This way you can write quickly and look dashing and smooth. This is a common technique used in cursive calligraphy.
It seems that writing cursive fonts is to simplify the strokes of the script, highly summarize, and grasp the main characteristics to write the entire character in two or three strokes as much as possible. Not only for the speed of writing, but more importantly, for the continuous strokes and echoes between words, so that the whole article is unified and harmonious.
For example, the word "lose", next to the car word on the left, a stroke is written, pay attention to the pen to be written slightly to the left to appear strong, the right part is in accordance with the "Yu" word structure type of the "Yu" character structure type of stroke writing just mentioned, so that the "close" and "put" between the strokes, so that the internal space and external space of the entire word are not evenly distributed, but there are main and secondary, loose and tight.
Another example: "Yu" character, the three points of water on the left, can be written into two strokes, can also be taken in one stroke, and then the trend is connected to the "Yu" character structure on the right, as long as you grasp the main pen, let go of writing, the rest of the secondary strokes converge, you can write the spirit of the word.
Another example: the word "over", there are many ways to write next to it, it can be written in an easy-to-identify way similar to the line letter, it can also be written as a simplified form of the cursive font, and it can even be simplified into an arc.
Let's look at another set of Chinese characters. These characters are many strokes, and they are different in form but have similar characteristics.
The basic ligature is given above. Pay attention to the difference between different consecutive strokes, generally divided into three forms, see the writing method referred to in the figure.
But no matter which way of writing, it is basically necessary to achieve "both receiving and putting", otherwise the word will be loose and weak.
For example, the word "breakthrough" is highly summarized and simplified on the left and becomes a stroke. A stroke is bent next to the mouth, and the right part is connected by the trend. The right side is also written in a stroke. So the whole word is written in one stroke.
Another example: "arm" word, upper and lower structure, the above is in accordance with the figure of the stroke, after writing the trend to connect the following moon word, the moon word next to the pen is also written, the two horizontal inside become 2 looks.
Another example: "avoid" word, the writing method next to the walk is very concise, a stroke can be, this is the writing of cursive, cursive, of course, usually do not write this way, because it is not easy to identify, but limited to the use of calligraphy works.
Another example: the character for "jin" and the word "ze" have the same parts, but also have differences. Pay attention to the distinction. The above is written differently, and the following is basically similar.
Another example: "discernment", "debate", "braid" words, roughly the same, that is, the part inside is slightly different, pay attention to distinguish and identify.
Another example is the "pen" character, which is given in the traditional chinese character cursive writing. It is often seen that calligraphers write this way, especially the techniques commonly used in the creation of calligraphy works. Usually, writing is not written in this way, but written in simplified characters.
From this point of view, this kind of cursive font is mostly used in calligraphy works, and is sometimes used in ordinary times.
Practice this kind of grass font, it is easy to express the spirit of calligraphy, no wonder the calligraphy exhibition sees a lot of it is written in the grass font, the rhythm of the word, the charm, the momentum, through this kind of grass font is very easy to express.
